> When 15-year-old Erik Finman turned a $1,000 Easter gift from his grandma into $100,000 after cashing in on his Bitcoin investment, he wasn’t all like Cristal, Maybach, diamonds on your timepiece.
It would be kind of difficult to buy a Maybach with $100,000 given that even a used one costs more than that.
Putting the article's heavy dose of fluff aside, it would be interesting to know if Finman paid capital gains on the $100,000. Additionally, if he truly has "employees" that he's paying in Bitcoin, it would be interesting to know if he's properly doing withholding, since you have to pay that in USD.
